The sky of Penacony was in chaos once again, yet this ti the internal turmoil of the Family left the regular mbers feeling numb.
However, the high-level managent of the Family did not heavily publicize Sunday's death: they rely inford so Family mbers in key positions and had them increase patrols.
Due to Pei Guang asking Xipe Cake for help, the Family received processed information.
Therefore, the Family temporarily did not know that Pei Guang was involved in the incident and focused their attention on a person who was related, yet unrelated, to the matter.
As for who it was? Xipe Cake did not tell Pei Guang, only informing him: "We won't let innocent people be implicated, woof~"
That's right, the information Xipe Cake had all high-level Family mbers receive was that 'Gallagher' of the Bloodhound Family was the mastermind, and that he manipulated Sothing Unto Death to kill Robin and Sunday.
In a sense, Xipe Cake was not completely misleading the Family mbers, because Pei Guang truly did not intend to kill Sunday: he rely established a good relationship with Sothing Unto Death.
Since it wasn't Pei Guang who instructed it, and he didn't have the idea to kill Sunday, then what did Sothing Unto Death killing Sunday have to do with Pei Guang?
As for Gallagher? He was indeed a murderer. Xipe Cake learned that Gallagher was behind this, and that Gallagher himself was even unusual, but it didn't matter.
As a Harmonious one, it could tolerate Gallagher. As long as his goal was for the sake of Penacony and the beauty of this world, it could forgive him.
But Xipe Cake also couldn't guarantee how long this influence could be maintained. After all, Pei Guang intended to execute the patriarchs of the various Families.
It could stabilize one or two, but if there were too many witnesses, it would only be able to forcefully mind-control them to ignore Pei Guang.
But how should one put it? As the Xipe Cake nurtured by Pei Guang, it firmly believed that Harmony achieved through forceful mind control was aningless.
If it were to do that, it could have easily asked Yaoshi Cake to create a large number of unconscious lifeforms for it to control and play with.
Wouldn't the lifeforms created by Yaoshi Cake be better to use than the people on the street?
To conscious beings, consciousness is the most precious thing: if you forcibly Harmonize them, their consciousness is no longer unique.
Only by preserving their unique consciousness while allowing the other party to sincerely recognize Harmony and join it, to collectively resist the cold universe and collectively tolerate the nihilistic future, is the Harmony it truly recognizes.
Since Xipe Cake said so, Pei Guang believed it.
Thus, he happily embarked on his plan to hunt down the Family's high-level mbers with Firefly.
Their first stop was the Iris Family.
Based on their performance during the previous battle, the Iris Family was not skilled in combat. Pei Guang planned to send off those who were not good at fighting first.
In the territory of the Iris Family, two Family mbers were chatting. Although they could know each other's information through the power of Harmony, the power of Harmony also easily exposed one's privacy.
As the lowest-level mbers of the Family, they both chose to communicate normally.
Tired Family mber: "Ah~ Soone's causing trouble again. Who is it this ti?"
Ordinary Hound: "I don't know. I heard the patriarch of the Oak Family was killed?"
Tired Family mber: "Oh!"
Ordinary Hound: "Aren't you curious?"
Tired Family mber: "Not curious. I estimate that in the end, this matter will either be a misunderstanding or will be resolved in a strange way by strange people. I'm tired, I'm exhausted~"
Since Pei Guang arrived at Penacony, Family mbers have experienced all sorts of bizarre lives, from facing the King of Trash to the Stellaron Hunters wreaking havoc on Penacony.
Now they have an indifferent attitude.
Anyway, the famous Trailblazer is in Penacony. If they really can't solve it, they can just say a few nice words and let the Trailblazer handle it.
They heard that the Trailblazer is very easy to talk to.
Give Stelle a few hundred Clock Credit, and she'll do anything, from fighting the monsters of the Dreamjolt Troupe to running errands.
They also heard that the legendary King of Trash is also very easy to talk to: as long as you prepare enough gifts, he can solve any difficult problem.
There are even rumors that this person has a very good relationship with several Emanators.
With their support, wouldn't things be stable?
They don't know why such an aweso person would beco the head of the Trash Can Family.
As for death... the higher up the Family ranks they are, the less they actually fear death, because almost everyone knows that the death brought by Sothing Unto Death is not true death.
The real danger is the perilous environnt outside Penacony, where death is truly possible, and the average person would find it difficult to survive there.
Compared to Robin, they feel Sunday is safer. Perhaps he will be back before long, or if luck is on his side...
As these two Family mbers chatted, two people approached.
Feeling soone approach, the Hound beca alert, but when they saw the people who had arrived, their expressions beca respectful.
"Respected King of Trash, hello!"
"Respected King of Trash, hello!"
Information about Pei Guang had already been disseminated by Sunday, and coupled with Xipe Cake's influence, even the Dreammaster did not know Pei Guang's purpose.
After all, the surveillance in the room was destroyed at the ti, and Xipe Cake was still using its Harmony power to influence the Family.
Since the Dreammaster was not physically present, they naturally couldn't detect the abnormality.
Looking at the two respectful people in front of him, Pei Guang looked at Firefly with so emotion: "See? The Affinity is high enough that even if we do sothing outrageous, they will happily welco us."
Firefly: "That's because they don't know your purpose. If they did, they definitely wouldn't be like this, right?"
Pei Guang: "Don't worry, even if they know what I'm going to do, as long as the Affinity is sufficient, they will still welco us. Just you watch!"
After explaining, Pei Guang looked at the two Family mbers: "Both of you, we are looking for the patriarch of the Iris Family. I want to give her a stab and send her to another world. Do you know where this patriarch is? How can I find her?"
The ordinary Family mber's expression froze: "What? Give... the patriarch a stab?"
The Hound next to him rolled his eyes: "The King of Trash is just joking with us. This is the Dreamscape. Forget one stab, a hundred stabs are fine. Great King of Trash."
The forgetful Tired Family mber: "Oh, oh, oh! You're right. I forgot that you can't truly die in the Dreamscape."
Hound: "That's why it's often said you have to adapt to life in the Dreamscape and not bring your habits from reality. Besides, he is the Great King of Trash! Allow to show you the way."
The Family mbers are incredibly fond of the Trash Can Family now, because when Pei Guang and the others caused a commotion earlier, it was the Trash Cans that saved Penacony and defeated the Stellaron Hunters.
At that mont, countless people beca Trash Cans, and so people who turned into Trash Cans and haven't changed back are now gathering together, singing about Trash Cans and praising Trash Cans.
At the sa ti, because of the arrival and help of the Cans, the Family's recognition of the Cans is extrely high.
The Hound, who was lecturing the person next to him, suddenly realized sothing was wrong. The King of Trash was still watching: this was too impolite!
"Sorry, Great King of Trash, we..."
Pei Guang waved his hand: "It's fine, it's fine~ I'm the one causing you trouble. We'll go find this patriarch now and send her to the new world."
Hound: "We wish you a pleasant journey~"
Pei Guang waved, and Firefly was stunned by the sight.
